Breaks For Romantics (Part 1): Our Landmark Trust Cottage in Wales
Breaks For Romantics (Part 1)// No matter how old we are, we will always be such romantics and there's nothing nicer than staying at a beautiful place to unwind.
When we discovered the Landmark Trust last year and booked our first stay in Yorkshire (Culloden Tower in Richmond), we were hooked. The Landmark Trust has the most amazing cottages, castles and follies throughout the UK for the most unforgettable experience be it just for a couple of days or a longer break. This time we stayed at Maesyronnen Chapel near Hay-on-Wye in Wales and it was the most charming and romantic cottage.

I so appreciate your vlogs as they take me to places I haven’t been yet........always wanted to see Wales and Cornwall..........nothing like sitting with a good book,a good fire and a glass of wine................Donna in Toronto
Thank you so much Donna. Yes, totally agree minus the wine for me, I never came to like the taste of alcohol but my hubs enjoys a glass of red.
I studied in Wales while in graduate school. It’s just beautiful. And the people are so warm and friendly. Love it !!! 😃👍❤️
Wales is so pretty and so diverse, mountains in the North and the most gorgeous coastline in the South.
Wundervoll, wie Du das machst Kirsten! Thanks for the beautiful places you show us!
Dankeschön!
Spent my high school days in the Hereford area.We lived at Dinmore Manor north of the City. Pronounced FLA - Hayvans, as if two words and as if with. ‘y’..
I so appreciate the pace of the delivery of this program. Just listening is relaxing and enjoyable.
That's so lovely to hear, thank you!!
Liebe Kirsten, seit gestern habe ich deinen Kanal entdeckt. So wunderschöne Aufnahmen und so außergewöhnlich. Herzlichen Dank dafür und viele Grüße aus "old Germany" , Berlin, Monika
Vielen lieben Dank!
Loved the book stores! And, I've made that recipe several times and it's amazing!!
The fire, the beams ,the sheep and the quiet..all winners. I'm reminded of staying in a home on Flinders Island Tasmania and hearing the sheep bleating near our fence..it was a working farm. Thank you for bring Landmark to our notice. When we visit the UK we hope to stay in some of these cosey restored homes.
You would absolutely love it, The Landmark Trust has some amazing properties.x
Hey there, Kristen! Just wanted to thank you, I really love your videos and they always make me want to visit the UK from top to bottom!! You always stay at the most amazing places!
Thank you so much Sara, even our list is endless.
Beautiful and so very relaxing. Looking forward to more of your inviting adventures.

It would be nice to see what the washrooms are like in these historical holiday rentals. Very interesting channel!
Thank you. Yes, the bathrooms are usually very simple and not as lovely as the rest, clean but pretty normal hahah.
I was thinking exactly that! I'm always looking for the bathroom..😁 I'd like to see it, even it is a normal one
You’re So Pretty!🥰
Oh no, I'm blushing, thank you sweetheart.

You two know how to live life happily and relaxed! I wonder what you both do for a living? Thankyou so much , I love ❤️ it
We try to make time on weekends since the days during the weeks can be super stressful.
Thank you for posting this. My great granny Annie Lewis was the caretaker of Maesyronnen Chapel for many decades, and raised her 15 kids there. Can you imagine in that small place? It was nice to take the tour again.
I love the idea of getting away ... Those penguin lights 😍
BTW your light hair color and lipstick look so beautiful … you are a rose in our spring garden cheering us up when the Light is so needed. Keep well you two ~
Wonderful little videos Kirsten, probably some of the most natural and lovely snippits of modern day social history that I've seen in a very long time... vielen danke!
Thanks so much Suzie.
Thank you so much. I like all that videos. Another form to travel and have a look inside in all that nice and lovely cottages. 🌻🍀🌻
This warmed my heart and made me wish I was there ❤️ Thank you for sharing with us! God bless you both 😊
I'm in love with your little pink house it's truly lovely,I have subscribed your channel is wonderful!And what a lovely couple you two are😊❤
Thanks so much! The pink cottage was the most amazing holiday cottage for a week.
Greetings from Michigan, I just subscribed. So nice to see a lovely couple enjoying each other's company. You could probably finish each other's sentences but have the love and respect for each other not to. It is so important to talk to each other rather than fill every waking moment with noise and activity. Thank you for the peaceful and shopping videos. Life is so hectic. Thanks, Carla
Thank you!!
miss England ... These places are beautiful .... Miss Cannock and Lichiefild
RICHARD BOOTH BOOKSHOP! Such a heavenly building!
Oh yes, such a dream.
I love your music on your videos.
I was also seeing some other videos of when your popup and a beautiful cottage pink and I went along seeing the orher ones, even the rain its lovely and the Inns are just perfect. Yes quite times and places like that to get away. There are not thar many here where we live. Hoping we go there one day. Thank you for such lovely videos.
Thank you so much! Yes rain can really be romantic at times.
Flahavans 😂🤣😂🤣 Ich musste so lachen! Es ist als würde man selber Urlaub machen! Ich liebe die Ruhe und die Musik! Ihr seid so süß!
Hehehe danke! Flahavan's sind echt die besten Haferflocken, die es gibt. So gut, wir haben sie nur zu Hause. Liebe Grüße
It’s so comforting and so realistic that I feel I’m traveling with you guys...
The dinner looked excellent! I love it when your husband gives you a kiss or two just out of the blue♡
What a lovely peacefull video to watch just tuned into it by chance it's great thanks very much Paul .ireland
Thanks so much, so happy you like it!
😊 Lovely ‼️
😮WOW, STEPHEN LEACOCK!🇨🇦 Stephen P. H. Butler Leacock was a world famous Canadian writer, teacher, political scientist and humourist. Between the years 1915 and 1925, he was the best-known English-speaking humourist in the world. My oh my, I'm off rambling again but I was so excited to see this book Joerg. Some of his writings are better than others, hopefully you enjoyed it. 🌹Such a lovely cottage and getaway for a sweet couple! I so enjoyed your vlog...you've got me hooked so keep filming please. Much love to you Kirsten and Joerg. xoxo
So romantic beautiful and so charming this video!😍❤️😍 I love your videos!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I just had to subscribe ! Awesome views. Love the rain I live in Arizona we don’t get much rain here, can get to 120 degrees in summer.
Thanks so much!
Those wide-planked floors are so beautiful. I think Wales is highly underrated. It is stunning. I want to go back. Maybe I'll seek out this lovely place!
Very serene n relaxing place away from stressful things..
Just viewed my first video. It was so lovely, the countryside, the shops I enjoyed so much. I feel like I've had a mini weekend away. Your narration is so nice and calming. Thank you for the "tour".
Thank you!
Lovely! Any roses around there in the Spring and Summer? I spent summers at my late grandmother's house which was built in 1776 so I love any old houses! I hope in future videos you show more of the British foods you eat for breakfast and what you have for teas and dinner. I'm looking forward to making Cornish pasties this fall/winter 2019. Love organic oatmeal for breakfast...love the blue and white dishes as well. Thanks for sharing from merry olde England! From my home in NEW England to yours!
I'm not sure if this particular cottage has roses but I bet it has, it's simply gorgeous there. And thank you for the wonderful suggestions, they are all great. I do love oatmeal as well.
I just wanted to say I think your videos are amazing and thank you so much for sharing. I recently relocated to Dorset from London, so lots of places to explore
Thanks so much, Dorset is wonderful!
Didn't want this episode to finish I felt very content thank you for sharing
Thank you for sharing your travels in the UK. Places of I've only dreamnt of visiting. You are such a charming couple ❤️.
Lovely. I love that book cover too.
Thank you!
I just found your videos and am really enjoying them and seeing all these places. 🧡
Thank you so much!
They are both such a delight 🥰
It's wonderful watching this beautiful country side..I live in Detroit Michigan and have always wanted to see this beautiful spot of the globe. Thank you for sharing
Oh it would be wonderful if you could, it's a lovely part of the world for sure.
You do a great job! Thanks for your videos, such an inspiration! So calming and funny at the same time!
Thanks so much!
Beautiful I love these historical cottages. Hope you had a lovely time. Wishing that I could also have us experiences in future.
So happy that a friend of mine told me about your videos. I love watching them before going to bed, as the music, scenery, and your soothing voice always relaxes me. Many thanks , from New Zealand 🤗
Thank you so much!
That downstairs to the cottage is PERFECT!!! It is all I want with perfect kitchen & fireplace room that's not too big. So cute. Thank you for showing.
Ok, I searched and found this video to watch again because I LOVE the cottage. I have to say I have never thought I'd eat porridge in my lifetime, but the one you made looks edible. I will try to make it one day. It's like grits in the South-not everyone likes them... Thanks again
What a sweet cottage
It's such a wonderful and peaceful place!
Binging on Kirsten's videos ❤🍃🍁☕
Flahavan´s Irish porridge ! The best in the world! ☘️
so beautiful cottage very lovely lady must be a english beautiful accent love England greetings from Brazil
❤️ A pleasure for heart, your videos!
Maesyronnen (mice-ur-on-nen) means Field Of The Ash. Welsh pronunciations are difficult, so well done Kirsten. I live in a village that has no vowels in it's name, though it does have five y's.
So beautiful! I’d love to visit there
It's so great there, we simply love the Landmark Trust properties.
Hoy descubrí tus videos, lo siento no entiendo tu idioma, pero siento estar paseando por esos lugares es hermoso todo lo que mostrás, saludos desde argentina 👏👏👏👋😃.
No tengo corazon buaaaa!!!!!!!!
